A review by pocketbookdragon
The Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer

2.0

I don't think I'm the only one, but I found I enjoyed these books for every other character that wasn't Bella, Edward, or Jacob. The characters in the background seemed much more interesting to me.

Like I'd like to know more about Carlisle's life before he met Edward. Or Jasper's life during the civil war. How about telling the story of how the Volturi over threw the Romanians. Or some short stories on the Nomads like Alistair, Garrett, and Peter and Charlotte. Or heck even some short stories on how each member of the Volturi Guard came to be a part of the Guard.

No, instead we get stuck with four books of the most dysfunctional relationship ever. I mean he STALKED her, made her fall in love with him, and when he finally remembered "Hey, my family are all vampires" he broke her heart and LEFT her in the FOREST!!! And then she proceeded to shut down for four months (this is obviously a "healthy" relationship).
